Rudders and Foot Braces We have experimented with several rudder systems and find the Feathercraft kit to be the most durable and user friendly. The kit includes all cables, mounting brackets. sleeves and fittings. It does not include the footbraces which are listed separately. Small Rudder - $179.00 Large Rudder - $209.00 (XPD and Reliance kayaks) Yakima footbraces - $75.00 (for rudder systems)

Rudder Mount An alternative to drilling into the hull when attaching the rudder pin….we had these aluminum rudder mounts custom at Art’s Welding made in Belize last year when Joan and Mick were building their kayaks at the Chaa Creek wood working shop. They do require a bit of buffing but are a solid solution for mounting the rudder. Light and strong. Cost - $40.00 each
